a house in the Third Ward. 1t seems
that he was handling a pistol, when by
some means the pistol was discharged,

A Sad Accident.

Early yesterday morning. the news
was received here that Hon. Lorin Farr
who had gone out on the Oregon Short

serious accident. The report was
quickly verified, and it was learned thai
the gentleman had fallen from the
platform of Silva's hide warehouse, al
Pocatello, and that he lay in an uncon-

Farr was going over into Bear Lake
Valley, and the accident occurred while
he was waiting to change from the

Mr.. Farr's family here of the accident,

TRUE PROSPERITY.

The Life Of Church Not to Re Gauged
by Outward Facts and Statistics, But by
Its Spiritual Force.
There are facts concerning church
life and church on-getting which no
statistics, no matter how accurately
gathered. nor how skilfully arranged.
can be made to grasp. The columns of
reports, and manuals, and year books,
are too clumsy to hold them. Only in
the invisible ledgers of God whose
sleepless Eye notes all events, and who
weighs and rightly estimates all mo-
tivcs and impulses and achievements.
can they be properly registered.
These are the facts which relate to the
spiritual state of each and all souls in
the communion of the church. They
are the facts which bear on the
unfolding into character of the . faith
and love and trust and longing for
purity which each member may possess.
If any such development has been going
on, we can all of us feel it, for even
one growing life makes a new and
sweeter atmosphere in a church. and
helps to elevate the tone of all. But
the matter can not be put into any
terms of our human arithmetic.
We could wish there were balances
into which churches could be put at
each annual meeting. SO sensitively adj
iussed that the slightest variation in
Thomas County cat. [volume] (Colby, Kan.) 1885-1891, 1887-02-10

spirituality might be detected at once.
Then we should know the exact stand
ing of each in the light of eternity, and
whether or not there had been any such
headway made. Can not somebody in
vent for us kind of immaterial Fair
banks scale in which to weigh the spir-
ituality of Christian men and Christian
churches? I'VE number 50 many" yes;
but how much do you weigh? How
much spiritual apprehension-how
much spiritual force-how much spiri-
tual significance, does your church
stand for?
Who does not see that this is the pith
of the whole business? We record the
other facts-facts of outward activity.
because we can; but these are the vital
facts. How much victory over sin has
there been? How much yielding to
evil drawings, or how much mastery of
temptation? How much real growth
in grace and knowledge? How much
likeness to Christ has been taken on,
and how much more loyalty is there to
the will of God?
Indeed, what is all other progress
worth if there has been no progress in
spiritual life? Surprising the church
has been lifted out of debt; supposing
a new mission building has been reared
and dedicated: supposisg the gifts
of the people were never before so
large and free; supposing the roll of
the membership was never before SO
long; supposing there has been an in
crease of pew-holders and wealth, and
good standing in the community, and
all that-what of it, if there is not more
faith in God. and more openness to ali
blessed influences. and a deeper and
sweeter sense of the Heavenliness of
all Heavenly things?
So. at their annual meeting, and in
view of any fiattering statistics which
may be presented, while profoundly
grateful for all good accomplished-it
becomes pastors and officers and men,
bers to read carefully between the lines
to see if the facts and figures brought
forward mean all they seem to mean.
The report may be very encouraging
on the surface, and yet the actual state
of things may be that the church as
whole has less faith, and less love, and
less conservation, and less mutual
affection, than when in outward mat
tiers it did not look SO prosperous. The
report may seem very discouraging,
when judged from financial and social
stand-points, while as matter of fact
the spiritual fervor and force of the
whole fellowship may be high Not by
might but by my Spirit. Be the show
ing what it may statisticwise, that
church has done best which has had
the deepest religious experiences in her
membership and has grown most God

RELIGIOUS READING.
WHAT 1 ASK.

What DO I ask for thee, my sweets
When every night to grace Divine
Isend a prayer on pinions fleet
LET her light sinner
] do not ask that human love
May hold thee in its Utmost shrine;
There is a gift all bliss above
Let her light sinner
Nor yet for power or fame plead,
care not that such dover were thine;
ask Him for thy greatest need
LET her light sinner
Not life. nor health, nor strength. nor gold.
Are burdens in this prayer o; mine;
Immortal good those few words hold
LET her light sinner
A tiny taper's glimmering ray,
Yet may il burn in upward line,
And brighten to the perfect day
LET her light shine
Iknow the worlds wind bloweth strong
To flicker out this light of thine:
But though the storm be rude and long
Let her light shine.'
Though grief and darkness gather round,
Even candle in a mine
Sheds its faint brightness underground
LET her light shine.'
A little spark OF quivering fame,
Yet are its source and end divine.
Father, ask it in his name
Let her light shine

neither have crushed raw bones, which
have been stated by some to produce
similar results.
lon the contrary, raw bones have
been proved by the very simple test of
experiment to hasten laying in the

be expected from the amount of fresE
jelly they contain; hence, while excel

adapted for the regular.food of chick

breeder for exhibition rather desires to
postpone. That this postponement
and with it continuous growth, is eff
feeted by the dry bone meal we have
most fully proved; and in the case Of
weakly breeds, which have it for its
strengthening power, but which it is
not wished to increase in size, the

SALT IN BUTTER.
A Opinion Which. Though Generally -.
tertained, l. Erroneous.


tertained, Il Erroneous.
1t is probably a. general belief. even
among dairymen, that salt used in the
manufacture of butter contributes to
its keeping. This is certainly the opin-
ion among consumers. and many
writer's on dairy subjects express the
same idea Nevertheless difficult as
it will be to change the current of
opinion in regard to this matter). the
fact is, that the salt used in making
butter is of no avail as preservative.
In most cases it has been proved to
have exactly the opposite effect
Absolutely pure fats and oils, wheth-
er of vegetable or animal origin. are
very stable in their composition at mod
crate temperature, and absolutely UNI
changeable at such temperatures when
air is excluded. But butter is very far
from being a pure fat, as ordinarily
made. There is, in fact, no way OF
making it such, except by means which
tend greatly to impair its value
for ordinary table use. The adj
mixture to some extent OF
the easily decomposable elements
of milk with butter, is unavoidable by
any process of manufacture known, or
likely to become known. This being the
case. fine table butter will always be 4
perishable article, never better than
when new, and soon parting with the
qualities 20 which its highest excellence
is due. The addition of salt to it will
in no wise retard its depreciation. but
will, on the contrary. conddce TO it.
though in lessening degree proper
toned to the exclusion of contaminat-
ing matters from the milk N its nlanU-
facture. Low temperature will pro-
long the life of butter, while the exclU-
sion of air will secure it from putres-
cent changes indefinitely. Qualification
by melting. conjoined with hermetical
sealing, will preserve the sweetness of
butter, but with the loss of its deli
cate qualities. This is, however,
the only practicable method for ship
use on long voyages, or for export to
tropical climates.
PROFESSIONALLY the most practicable
way of preserving butter for family use
is submergence in a brine made of pure
salt and water. If kept in a cool place,
this secures the two conditions of low
temperature and exclusion of air. The
use of the salt in this case is not to
preserve the butter, but to keep the
water sweet, for perfectly pure and
cold water will keep butter as well
without salt as with it. This has been
'conclusively proved by finding butter
crooks lost in deep well, the contents
of which, after years of submersion,
were perfectly sweet.
No one who has ever melted butter
is unaware of the large amount of for
eign matter in even the best samples.
When this is removed, butter will keep
better than oleomargarine, but this is
done only at the sacrifice of the eN.
tremely volatile and changeable flavor
ing matters which give to new butter
its peculiar delicate richness, and vet.
by very slight changes, are the chief
element in the abominable rankness
that soon succeeds, even with the best
ordinary care.-COr. n. Y Examiner.
